As a Brit, I've been watching the American election results with sorrow for my American friends. Some are comparing it to the Brexit vote here, imagining if we'd voted for Brexit twice. But here's the thing... in a sense, we did. And here are some lessons from it. 🧵
In Detroit in June, Trump said of his campaign, “We don’t need [the] votes,” and “We got more votes than anybody’s ever had.”
The fact is, on multiple occasions, Trump said he didn’t need votes.
Record turnout and the Democratic vote goes down by 15M
While "I don't need the votes" Trump still loses votes and wins every battleground State.
Something isn't right.
Harris shouldn't concede yet.
Biden should demand independent checks ASAP
Fight back god dammit...
I have no idea what the hell happened, but there is no fucking way that 15 million Democrats took the night off compared to 2020, and decided not to go vote against a rapist.
No. Fucking. Way.
Hey, Donald Trump, JD Vance and all you other Russian loving cretins, there are literally hours and hours of each of you saying the election was “RIGGED.” I guess we better have Re-count and thorough investigation, eh?
Judging by the number of foreign bots coming at me this morning, I know I’m right about Trump. He didn’t win last night. He had help. Lots of it. Find out what happened.
In North Carolina, over 3 MILLION people voted for Democrat Josh Stein for governor, but SOMEHOW, 352,000 of them did NOT also vote for Kamala for President?
Who actually believes that? This is Putin-level election fraud. This election was stolen.
Andrea Mitchell asks if Democrats should think twice about nominating a Black person or woman.
Juanita Tolliver let her have it. She asked, why are you asking Democrats to modify their behavior and not asking white women to modify their voting behavior?
#DemsUnited
#WhereAreTheVotes
15 million Democrats didn't *legally* disappear.
Not after #Roevember
Not after all the Trump trials and scandals
Not after #Project2025
Fuckery is afoot.
Bigly.
Kamala should not concede until questions are answered. Democrats were motivated, but 15,000,000 less of them voted. This is bullshit. Speaks of interference and don't anyone tell me trump wouldn't do it.
